you really really shouldn't. it's a pretty stupid thing to do. not only is it extremely bad for the environment, but you can sell them to a laptop recycler for as much as 75% of its value (the new laptops have standard about $90 batteries). for an old, barely functoinal battery, you should be able to get anywhere from 5-10% of its original value if you do a little looking. if you still want to be stupid and throw it away anyways or if you live in the middle of a desert and can't recycle it, i suggest you put the battery in a ton of plastic Publix bags or something at least. places like Office Depot, Best Buy, Radioshack, etc. usually recycle. typically, if they sell various rechargable battery types, they recycle.

Nothing good.
Battery recycling centers are the best choice. Even local electronic stores will help with it like "Bestbuy" or Radioshack. Hope this helps! NEVER throw away a laptop battery. They contain very toxic heavy metals.
The battery is dead.
Anything moldy should be thrown away. "When in doubt, throw it out!"
Nothing, the battery will be drained besides that everything will or should work like it did before you put it away for 3 weeks.
Close the laptop. Turn it upside down the front facing you. There should be two sliding switches. The left one with the rectangular icon etched near it is for releasing the battery. Slide the switch and hold it. The battery is located in the lower left part of the laptop. While you are holding the switch, slide the battery sideways away from the laptop. When inserting the battery just slide it in until you hear a click. If the battery is inncorectly orientated it won't fit in the slot.
Any computer needs electricity to work. Laptop computers have an internal battery that powers the computer when you are away from your work desk. If you are return to your work desk or the battery is running out of charge you can still attach the laptop computer to mains electricity.
wrap it in paper and throw it away in the trash can
A battery on a laptop serves its purpose of allowing you to take your laptop with you away from external power sources (ex. ac outlet). They can also work like uninterruptable power supplies as if you have the laptop hooked up to an outlet yet the power goes out for a minute, your work is safe as the power will not shut off.
